What will I learn?
This Optimisation Course provides a focused, practical approach to designing and solving small-scale vehicle routing problems. You will gather and prepare real distance and cost data, construct exact models using modern solvers, and apply heuristics and metaheuristics. Learn to assess trade-offs, perform sensitivity analysis, and convert algorithmic outcomes into clear, dependable routing choices for actual operations.
